Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study consists in determine the transpulmonary pressure in morbidly obesity patients that require mechanical ventilation.

* both gender
* only adults
* Medical intensive care patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

We are studying adult patients with morbid obesity with respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation.

We are measuring transesophageal presssures to estimate ideal PEEP and evaluate hemodynamic parameters.
